=== [[Music]] ===
* ''"I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up four wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats. I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights, slashed a hole in all four tires, maybe next time he'll think before he cheats."'' courtesy of [[Carrie Underwood]]. The video for the song does show her tossing some stuff through the window, though the man is otherwise occupied * nudge nudge wink wink* and doesn't actually get to see the results on screen.
* Pink[[P!nk]]'s video for the song "There You Go" actually shows a '''motorbike''' crashing through the cheating boyfriend's window.
** PinkP!nk and her BF fought in the "You Make Me Sick" vid. Nothing goes through a window, but they sure wreck each other's stuff.
* The [[Barenaked Ladies]] song "The Humour of the Situation" has the protagonist drive home to find all his belongings on the lawn courtesy of his girlfriend.
* A Finnish singer Anssi Kela has a couple of lines in his song "1972" that translate roughly into "When I returned home yesterday, my key didn't fit into the lock/My clothes are flying out of the window". It's very likely to be an example of this trope.
* Willie Mabon's R&B song "I'm Mad" (featured in the cartoon ''Sing, Beast, Sing''), has him venting his anger on his soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend, eventually threatening to pitch her clothes: "Won't be any more washin', or hangin' upside the wall/ I'm throwin' them out the window/ Run out and catch 'em before they fall."
* [[Lily Allen]]'s video 'Smile' shows her getting revenge upon her cheating boyfriend by hiring thugs to beat him up and trash his apartment.
* [[Pet Shop Boys]] ' "The boy who couldn't keep his clothes on" has the girl in the spoken break threaten to do this to her boyfriend due to his [[Ho Yay|extracurricular]] [[Please Put Some Clothes On|activities]].
* The BlackHawk music video "Goodbye Says It All" has a man coming home to find his home trashed with a video showing his ex ruining his possessions. He throws the television in the lake after she says, "And even though I'm leaving you, I still hope we can be friends."
* Parodied with [[Kelly Clarkson]]'s [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRM70Jw7F4M&feature=feedf My Life Would Suck Without You] video. She teasingly steals first the magazine he's reading and tosses it out, he does the same to the one she was reading. Then she goes and grabs some of his clothes and tosses them, he does the same (and she even takes some of her clothes and tosses them herself). The video ends with the pair kissing.
